Ingredients

Scale
  • Crust:
    • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
    • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • Cheesecake Filling:
    • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Apple Topping:
    • 3 medium apples, peeled and thinly sliced
    • 1/4 cup brown sugar
    • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Crumble Topping:
    • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/4 cup rolled oats
    • 1/4 cup brown sugar
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions

  • Prepare the Crust:
    • Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
    • Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press firmly into the bottom of a springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
  • Make the Cheesecake Filling:
    • Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract. Pour over the cooled crust.
  • Prepare the Apple Topping:
    • Toss apple slices with brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Arrange them evenly over the cheesecake filling.
  • Add the Crumble Topping:
    • Mix flour, oats, brown sugar, and butter with your fingers or a pastry cutter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over the apples.
  • Bake the Cheesecake:
    • Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes

  • Use Granny Smith apples for a tart flavor or Honeycrisp for a sweeter topping.
  • Cheesecake is best made a day in advance to allow flavors to fully develop.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
